	Wisconsin Medical Society - Savant FAQ
		Savant Syndrome is a rare, but spectacular, condition in which persons with various developmental disorders, including autistic disorder, have astonishing islands of ability, brilliance or talent that stand in stark, markedly incongruous contrast to overall limitations.
		The savant skills co-exist with, or are superimposed upon, various developmental disabilities including autistic disorder, or other conditions such as mental retardation or brain injury or disease that occurs before (pre-natal) during (peri-natal) or after birth (post-natal), or even later in childhood or adult life.
		Savant skills are very prominent in many Asperger's persons, certainly as high as in 10% of them, and it is often those highly specialized skills that bring Asperger's persons to prominence.

	Autistic savant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Savant Syndrome is sometimes abbreviated as "savantism" and individuals with Savant Syndrome abbreviated to savants.
		Savant Syndrome is usually recognized during childhood and is found in children with autism and other developmental difficulties.
		Some savants have obvious neurological abnormalities (such as the absent corpus callosum in Kim Peek's non-autistic brain), but the brains of most savants are anatomically and physiologically normal; at least, there is no abnormality detectable by modern science.

	Enterprise Java Community: Ant + Dependencies = Savant
		Savant is simply a collection of tasks and types that allow projects to declare their dependencies, perform common tasks on these dependencies (such as copy) and publish items that the project produces.
		Savant also supports other processes including a savantprocess, which can also be used to download artifacts from remote locations, but is more robust with respect to URL structures; and the cvsprocess, which can be used to fetch artifacts from a CVS module.
		Savant makes this easy to accomplish, if the JAR file is an artifact, by handling the resolution of the artifact during the build and ensuring that the JAR file is the correct version.

	Savant Notebook (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		They are intended to assist the Savant disciple in developing a perspective based on the actualization of our purposes, a lifestyle based on clear fundamental principles and a sense of our relationship with all who choose to follow a path of any kind.
		Thus the principles that underlie the Savant approach to the concept of consciousness are intended as an overview and a place from which to begin exploration of the subject rather than as definitive conclusions.
		Implicit in the whole concept of the Savant path is the idea that ultimately, even the Savant structure itself must be abandoned as it is only a road, a vehicle, to be used with care, integrity and due respect, then released when it no longer serves.

	Autism Today, latest news and resources for autism and autism related issues
		Savant skills occur within a narrow but constant range of human mental functions, generally in six areas: calendar calculating; lightening calculating and mathematical ability; art (drawing or sculpting); music (usually piano with perfect pitch); mechanical abilities; and spatial skills.
		In talented savants, concreteness and impaired ability to think abstractly are locked in a very narrow band but, nevertheless, with constant practice and repetition can produce sufficient coding so that access to some non-cognitive structure or unconscious algorithms can be automatically attained.
		It is also important to point out that the savant in the movie is a high functioning person with autistic disorder, but the disorder consists of an entire spectrum of disabilities ranging from profoundly disturbed to high functioning; not all autistic savants function at such a high level.
